What tyres are you running on your cars ?
Hated those on my Saff Kev, didn't rate them for much Grip in the wet.
Max put Uniroyal Rainsport on when he changed to 18s, great tyre i felt these were, had Eagles on my Evo and other cossie, very impressive..

HANKOOK VENTUS EVO V12, k110, all the way, faster in the wet than f1 is in the dry, seem ace on 2wd and 4wd, V quiet, grip in wet is unreal esp under braking, exactly as the tests have found, used f1 myself on various cars, still yet to be impressed, vredestein sportrac 3 masses better wet and dry, as were rainsports, but none can touch the evo v12
, have quite soft sidewalls so seem a bit less sharp to start with, until you get used to them, at sepang they lapped within 1.8 secs of dedicated track tyres on a scooby wet and dry, ie wet track tyre and dry track tyre, and after doing this and the track tyres being worn out the car was driven home on the still legal ventus v12.

i totally agree with you, tyres are a very personal thing and also i feel perform VERY differently on different cars and in different sizes so all you can really do is try some different tyres till you find the ones you like.
